In vitro Fermentation Profile and Methane Production of Kikuyu Grass Harvested at Different Sward Heights

Frontiers in Sustainable Food Systems, 2021
Highly digestible forages are associated with an in vitro low-methane (CH4) rumen fermentation profile and thus the possibility of reducing CH4 emissions from forage-based systems.

The morphogenesis of marandu palisadegrass at fixed or variable heights in different seasons of the year

Bioscience Journal, 2020
Height variations in a sward over the year may be efficient for increasing plant growth, compared with maintenance of the sward at a constant height. Thus, this experiment was conducted from February 2013 to May 2014 to characterise the development of ...

Infective larvae of Haemonchus contortus found from the base to the top of the grass sward

Revista Brasileira de Parasitologia Veterinária, 2021
The resistance of gastrointestinal nematodes (GIN) of sheep to anthelmintic treatment has motivated researchers to seek alternatives to reduce the use of these drugs in sheep farming and decontaminate pastureland based on knowledge about the survival ...

Effect of sward height and sheep breed on sward composition during summer grazing period [PDF]

Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Science, 1995
The sward height could determine the intake of the herbivores and, at the same time, to affect to sward composition (Morris et al., 1994). If the foraging strategies is different among species could be also different among breeds of sheep (Milne, 1991).The objective of this work is to know the effect of sward height and sheep breed (churra and merina ...

Effect of grazing management strategies on the yield and nutritional value of Marandu grass in the semiarid of Brazil

Semina: Ciências Agrárias, 2021
The objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of two grazing management strategies on structural, productive and nutritional parameters of Marandu grass (Urochloa brizantha cv. Marandu).

Effect of Sward Height on Rumen Degradation in Merino Grazing Sheep [PDF]

Proceedings of the British Society of Animal Production (1972), 1993
It is now well established that the height of the sward grazed by sheep has a large effect on their performance (Hodgson, Mackie and Parker, 1986). However, there is a scarce of information about the rumen fermentation in sheep grazing at different sward heights.
